The first 3 (maybe 4, depending on who you ask) had a round "p&d" or "Excalibur" style deck but were layed up by pantera.

Here's a pic of the first hull (wcw 001) and you can see the rounded deck:

The one pictured was layed up by P&D but carried the Pantera name. This one is the 1st Pantera... Ask Pepe or Joe and they will confirm. That was told to me by Pepe himself several yrs ago as we have a really close bond.

All those skinny boats were born from a 23' Magnum mold built by Hary Schoell for Aronow. Harry desiigned and built the mold, not a plug and mold. About a hundred boat compan
ies got their start with that.

I just picked up a 19.2 ' P & D (1971) very close to the Hornet- http://www.allardmarine.com/1970%20Brochure.htm
I thought it was a Donzi -- It has Donzi tags on it - Regardless its Rock solid

Hary Schoell also designed Active Thunder's AVH (Active Ventilated Hull) single step/pad bottom hull and they run great!! It's an advanced design of the DDC hull....

Flyinlow -

its starting to grow on me - I thought about pulling the windshield and preparing the topside for some
fresh urethane white - I appreciate the good wishes - the boat is starting to grow on me most-likely because of its practicality
down here in SWFL - something to bring any where and drop it in " I still dont have very much info on how many were made this is the first one I have seen :)
